Gilligan's Island

A friend and former co-worker of Brian's threw a Gilligan's Island theme party. Everyone had to dress up as a character from the show. You could be one of the main characters or one of the many visitors to the island. You know the ones that would show up and then find a way off the island by the end of every episode while the cast-a-ways were always stuck. Since I already went as Mary Ann a couple of years ago for Halloween, my costume was pretty much already picked out. Brian decided to go as Gilligan. The hardest part about his costume was finding the hat. You would think that living in a coastal region it would be easy, think again. We took turns going to different stores trying to find that stupid hat. We had fun and I thought that we looked pretty cute. Rumor has, it next year will be a Saturday Night Live them party, so any ideas or suggestions, let me know.

Happy Birthday Autumn!

My birthday day this year was quiet. We pretty much just hung around the house. Which was fine with me. We we did go to a Def Leppard and Poison concert, but that really wasn't part of my birthday. It just happened at the same time. Brian made me a chocolate cake, from scratch, for me, and we went to his parents house for a BBQ. Other than that nothing to exciting, except we were able to get a crazy picture of Maggie playing in the back yard. She is chasing after a Frisbee type toy and I got her in mid air. She does catch it. She sure doesn't act like a dog that is seven years old!

Def Leppard and Poison

We went to see Def Leppard, Poison, and Cheap Trick last night. Basically it was an 80's flashback concert. I was really excited to see Def Leppard and Brian was excited to see Poison. Neither of us really cared about Cheap Trick. The one thing that was really weird, we were not allowed to take cameras into the show. Luckily, for my birthday Brian had bought me a new cell phone that takes pretty good pictures. That is how I was able to get this shot. We saw all kinds of people. Mostly people with mullet wigs and blow-up guitars, but there were a few that still were rockin' in the 80's.
